Pools opening next month

Cardinia Council’s outdoor pools are set to reopen in November, welcoming community members to cool off and have some fun in the sun.

The Garfield, Kooweerup and Pakenham pools will open their gates on Saturday 9 November, while the Emerald Lake Park Precinct wading pool will reopen on Saturday 23 November.

This season, the pools will open when the temperature reaches 25 degrees, as forecast by the Bureau of Meteorology at 4pm the day prior.

The pools will be looking fresh following maintenance, cleaning, and upgrade works at all outdoor pools to enhance the facilities, including repainting of the pools at Kooweerup and Garfield, installation of a new pool pod at Kooweerup to provide wheelchair accessibility to the 33-metre pool, installation of permanent CCTV cameras at Pakenham, new pool perimeter tiles at Kooweerup, installation of duck deterrent technology at Garfield, and shade sail replacement at Garfield and Pakenham.

In addition to enjoying the pools, residents can look forward to various events and activities hosted by Cardinia Leisure throughout the summer.
